this summer’s 2000 AD Sci-Fi Special, which — for the first time in the anthology’s 41-year history — will feature an all-female creative lineup when it’s released in June, from writers and artists to colorists and letterers, working on some of the title’s biggest characters and series, including Judge Dredd, Rogue Trooper and Psi-Judge Anderson.

I’m very pleased to say that I’ll be writing one of the strips for this special edition. I’m thrilled and honoured to be among such good company, and to have the opportunity to write for such an iconic comic.

Growing up in a small town in the West of Ireland there wasn’t much in the way of comics except for 2000 AD. I read it as often I can could get it, and the characters and stories have a special place in my nerdy heart.

It’s marvellous to get the opportunity to work with the Mighty Tharg. My younger self would have been hugely impressed.

I’ll provide more specific details about the project as it progresses…
